Lightware MX2M-4OPTJ-IB HDMI 2.0 Multimode Fiber Input Board - 9112...
Product Overview
The Lightware MX2M-4OPTJ-IB is a four-port HDMI 2.0 multimode fiber input board designed for installation into the MX2M modular matrix frame. It accepts uncompressed HDMI 2.0 signals delivered over multimode fiber via MTP/MPO connectors, making it the correct choice for long-distance intra-building signal distribution where copper HDBaseT falls short. AV integrators specifying HDMI 2.0 fiber input boards for large-venue modular matrix systems will find this board well-suited for data centers, broadcast facilities, and large corporate campuses requiring 4K60 4:4:4 signal integrity over extended fiber runs.
Product Description
The MX2M-4OPTJ-IB slots directly into the Lightware MX2M frame, adding four independently addressable HDMI 2.0 fiber inputs without external conversion hardware. Each port receives HDMI 2.0 signals — including 4K UHD at 60 Hz with full 4:4:4 chroma sampling — over multimode optical fiber terminated with MTP/MPO connectors, the industry-standard interface for high-density fiber patch systems. The board communicates with the MX2M frame backplane at full bandwidth, allowing any input to be routed to any output board in the frame with no signal degradation. Signal presence detection and EDID management are handled per-port by the MX2M frame's control system, accessible via the Lightware Device Controller software or third-party control systems through the frame's LAN port.
Key Features
- Four HDMI 2.0 Fiber Inputs — Each port independently receives uncompressed HDMI 2.0 signals over multimode fiber, supporting up to 4K60 4:4:4 HDR.
- MTP/MPO Optical Connectivity — Industry-standard MTP/MPO connectors support integration with structured fiber patch systems in enterprise and broadcast environments.
- Multimode Fiber Support — Compatible with OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for intra-building runs typically up to 300 m.
- Full Backplane Bandwidth — Signals pass to the MX2M frame crosspoint matrix at full resolution with no compression or scaling.
- Per-Port EDID Management — EDID data is stored and managed per input port, ensuring source devices negotiate correct output resolutions.
- Frame-Level Control Integration — Managed through the MX2M frame's Ethernet control port via Lightware Device Controller, RS-232, or third-party control systems.
- Hot-Swap Compatible — Board can be installed or replaced in the field without powering down the MX2M frame.
- No External Power Required — Board receives operating power from the MX2M frame backplane.
Typical Applications
- Large corporate boardroom and executive briefing center matrix systems
- Broadcast studio signal routing infrastructure
- University auditorium and performing arts center AV distribution
- Government operations center and command-and-control facilities
- House of worship with distributed 4K video production

Frequently Asked Questions
- What frame does the MX2M-4OPTJ-IB install into?
- The MX2M-4OPTJ-IB is designed exclusively for the Lightware MX2M modular matrix frame. It is not compatible with MX-FR9 or other Lightware frame generations.
- What fiber type and connector does this board use?
- It uses MTP/MPO connectors with OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber, supporting runs up to approximately 300 m on OM4.
- Does the board support HDR signals?
- Yes. HDMI 2.0 HDR formats including HDR10 and HLG are passed through unmodified to the matrix crosspoint.
- Can this board be installed while the frame is powered?
- Yes. The MX2M frame supports hot-swap board replacement without requiring a full system power cycle.
- How is EDID managed per port?
- Each port stores and presents EDID independently. EDID can be customized or locked using Lightware Device Controller software or via the API.
- Does this board require external power or SFP modules?
- No. The board receives all operating power from the MX2M frame backplane and uses integrated optical interfaces — no separate SFP modules are needed.
